Rubbish manual here.

Better manual here. Password for this one is "Pentax" (without quotes and case sensitive).

Matt means that they have TTL support and it's for that reason I'm hanging on to my *istD.

Maybe there's a reason they were only £299.00

K20D images in Picasa 3 are fine, sorry I can't help with Silkypix.

You could be right. The 2 transactions show as "Pending" and totalling £2. It could be that they are 1 debit and 1 credit. I won't know until tomorrow.

The GX20 opportunity has gone now anyway.

From my experience it would seem that anybody who had an account with play.com already stood a fair chance of getting one of the five available.

My account needed an "additional security check" because this was my first order and it was over £100.00. By the time that check was made there was no stock left.

I've cancelled my account with them but to my surprise, 2 debits of £1.00 each have been made on my credit card account since I gave Play.com my CC details.

I'll not be dealing with them again even if they knock out K20D's at £199.00.

Anybody here received a GX20 yet?

My order is still pending, but I'm not holding my breath.

Original version looks like this. Mk II version looks like this.

There is very little difference between them except that the resolution of the MkII is supposed to be as good as the K20D sensor.

The kit with one lens is £740 ? ? ? ?

£299 for the body only just has to be a mistake.

This topic has been posted twice in the same forum. Can an admin bod concatenate them?

All 135mm Pentax lenses after the K series has a built in hood.

With the exception of the original SMCP series (K) 135mm lenses, all Pentax 135mm lenses have built in hoods. That includes M, A, F, & FA lenses.

You can check all of them here.

BTW, You seem to have posted this twice, which is a dumb thing to do. Now you have to check replies in two places instead of just the one. Please don't double post.
